Hello!

I am looking for a charger for 4 AAs and 4 AAAs (Eneloops).

While I have looked through a lot of the recent posts, I am still undecided between three chargers mainly because I am unsure if:

- is a smart charger or has four indepedant channels:oops:?

While I dont need ultra quick chargers, I would prefer to leave them overnight without worrying about overcharging.

The other two options are http://tinyurl.com/2lur96 [Eneloop Power Pack] and http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.6152 [Soshine Quick Charger]
however would I need an adaptor to get them working in the UK?

While I would love to be able to buy a Technoline etc. my rechargable battery usage is limited and my budget is low.


Thanks in advance for any advice :) !

Holy Moly!

I just went to argos.co.uk and browsed what they have in the way of chargers. Many of the fast chargers are in the £20 to £30 range, and not even with four independent channels. These are the same chargers that cost $20 to $30 (or less) in the US. Stuff really is overpriced in the UK, isn't it? (I already noticed this when I went back home at Christmas and saw the UK prices of digital cameras and SD cards...)
 
Most electronics here are overpriced, so all the chargers and batteries I am looking at are shipped from either the USA or Hong Kong :grin2:
